Abstract
A cadaveric study showed that vascularized transfer of the articular surface of the ipsilateral first metatarsal head with the lateral collateral ligament could be suitable for reconstruction of the proximal pole of scaphoid and scapholunate ligament. Further study of the technique is recommended.
